Invoice approvals that are easy AND accurate
With Stampli, approving invoices is simple and painless, even for approvers outside of finance. Stampli provides a single screen containing everything an approver needs to efficiently review and approve invoices. Approvers can access the invoice, supporting documents, approval history, and other context to inform their decision. Built-in messaging allows easy communication with AP, team members, and vendors. Approvers can approve, reject or reassign invoices with just a click, even on the go with Stampli’s mobile app.
The old way: Approvals without Stampli
Approving invoices is often stressful and time-consuming for executives and department leaders. Limited invoice information and hard-to-access supporting documents cause confusion and delays. Approvers feel pressured to quickly review invoices despite complex AP software and unclear roles and responsibilities. This leads to rushed decisions, oversights, and back-and-forth communication with AP teams.
